Appendix C. NL240 Settings
Port Number
Specifies a numeric code for the port that the router will use. It will
correspond with one of the following:
0 CS I/O
1 RS-232
100 PakBus/TCP Connection — If the value of the port number is
100 or greater, the connection is made through PakBus/TCP.
Via Neighbor Address
Specifies the address of the neighbor/router that will be used to send
messages for this route. If the route is for a neighbor, this value will be
the same as the address.
PakBus Address
Specifies the address that the route will reach.
Response Time
Specifies the amount of time (in milliseconds) that will be allowed for the
route.
Central Routers
This setting specifies a list of up to eight PakBus® addresses for routers that
are able to work as Central Routers. By specifying a non-empty list for this
setting, the device will be configured as a Branch Router meaning that it will
not be required to keep track of neighbors of any routers except those in its
own branch. Configured in this fashion, the device will ignore any neighbor
lists received from addresses in the central routers setting and will forward any
messages that it receives to the nearest default router if it does not have the
destination address for those messages in its routing table.
C.6 TLS Proxy Server Tab
TLS Proxy Server
Enable/Disable the TLS Proxy Server. When doing TLS proxy communications,
the device’s TLS server maintains a secure TLS connection with a remote TLS
client and forwards information onto a datalogger using a standard TCP
connection. TCP ports and physical connections are configured below.
If the TLS Proxy Server is enabled and a datalogger is connected
to the CS I/O port, the datalogger will load its TCP stack in case
it is required to do TCP communications. Running the TCP stack
causes the datalogger to use more memory, leaving less for final
storage, etc. So if TCP/TLS server capability is not required, the
TLS Proxy Server should be left disabled.
